People cope with things in different ways. That's a traumatizing event and probably something she'd think about daily, tattoo or not. It's her way of overcoming it and unifying with people who've gone through a similar experience. 2388arizona_

And I also have the story behind it. I won't go into full details, just the little details. On January 21, I was sexually assaulted by a friend. I went to stay with said friend, smoked, had like 5 sips of alcohol, wasn't feeling right, I laid down, and that's when my nightmare began. I was unresponsive but conscious when everything began. Never in my life did I expect my life to flip like that 5 days after my birthday. Everything has been so hard for me, coping, counseling, and a potential trial if the prosecuter picks up this case.
This tattoo is actually something Lady Gaga had got with many other survivors like myself, and I decided this was what I wanted. I'm not a victim, I'm a survivor. And this is my reminder. 1/21/18 has forever changed my life. I will overcome this trauma, this is my life, this is my story.

2388Arizona_ the tattoo isn't just a reminder, with or without one I was gonna remember this my whole life. This is just to bring me above water and not let myself be seen in a negative light through my own eyes. It's a relieving tattoo, to remind me of how strong I am to have made it through

Wow elise sorry such an awful thing happened to you. Even though i dont know you as well you are clearly such a strong person for 18 and i wish u the best and hope it all gets better for u. Grats on the tattooooo!! x
